Grafiti Travel, Getting Around Myeong Dong




One of Seoul's popular districts with abundant shopping malls and department stores.  A paradise for a freak fashionista as this place provides a prominent branded to a vast range of inexpensive clothes from local.  And for sure its famous Korean cosmetics & skin care brands.  Last but not least,  it is a place where you can taste various Korean street food hawkers.

For Korean, the market locates in the heart of Seoul is a witness to the nation's tumultuous started since WW2 ended.  For an international tourist, Myeongdong is a stunning place to spend notably during the night.  As Myeongdong always at the top of places to visit in South Korea,  this market becomes a melting pot of traveler around the globe.  Estimated 2 million people visit Myeongdong every day.

And during one windy evening in spring,  I was among the curb, getting around the market like others.

But, wait.

How suddenly end up in Myeongdong?

So, here the story.


Early this year, mid-March to be exact, after concluding long-complex-exhausted assignment; the project team was awarded traveling to Seoul.   Who would say NO to a free trip to South Korea?  Me definitely not!

It was a 5D3N group tour so all I have to do was sit nicely and follow the program.

Everybody knows the Myeongdong market located in 99 ha Myeongdong area is a heaven for a shopper.  Instead of spending money on wildest shopping dream, I let my self-lost in the crowd and sucked the air of fiesta Myeongdong released.

In the windy and freezing night, I tried to capture the hustle yet exciting of Myeong Dong.  Enjoy!
